Dear Admins

I've got several responses to my problem, which agree that
'irele' means 'inode release' and can be fixed with the patches

100988 for 4.1.3
101592 for 4.1.3_U1
102516 for 4.1.4

The panic occurs if the system trys to release an already released
inode.

However, one respondend remarked that this error could also be related
to hardware. Since we haven't this patch installed until now, I hope
that it isn't the hardware.

------------ original question -----------------

One of our Sparc 10 (10/20, 4.1.3) is broken down twice in the last
10 days. The message on the console was:

vmunix: panic on cpu 0: irele

Unfortunately I can't find any information, what 'irele' might mean. I tried
the Answerbook and the man pages, but got no information.

So my question: What is going wrong here?

This sparc runs now for approximately 2 years without big problems and the
configuration wasn't changed during the last months.
